I guess I agree with the mother on this. I don't get why the Knights can't put it on their private land. It is probably close to the same spot anyway. I always find it funny when folks argue over the Nativity set at Christmas. I don't know why the pro nativity folks don't ask a Christian family next door to the court house. Folks are always fighting over things that can easily have solutions too.
